With a newly acquired hand truck, we (Elise, Shelley, and I) moved out the old clothes dryer and brought in the "new" old one. Fortunately dryers are lighter than washers, so it wasn't too much effort to lift both up and over the heater. Both of them successfully made the trip through the narrow passages and corners.
I discovered that the plug on the replacement unit was different. I first tried to work out the old one on the old dryer, but after a few minutes it became apparent that it would be much easier to just get a new cord and plug. Off to the hardware store and back, and then about half an hour spent removing the old cord and replacing it with the new, we moved the unit into place, attached the vent, plugged it in, and with fear and trepidation pushed the button to start it... And it started.
That's about it for the excitement around here. We got a few more snowflakes this evening, but it hasn't really stayed. Last night's snow has also pretty much gone away. All that's left is the old, hard ice from a month ago.
